Agree that they are very social creatures and flaring is a good thing imo. prevents boredom great exercise. Its cool in my house at night so I put 1.9l in a heated tub and slip in a cut plastic divider so they cant see each other. The Turkey Baster may have been the most important invention of all time.

Add on to lg, 1.9 liters is approximately half a gallon.

I will also note... If you were to use anything they couldn't see each other through they would actually become depressed from sudden isolation. That's the last thing you need :)

how do you heat the jars without floating them in the actual growout tank?

[Sena Hansler]

A few things you can do. I heat a room (remember the smaller the room with an automatic adjustable room heater is cheaper than a larger room). If living in tropical areas, it's easier. You can also heat a tub of water, and allow the jars to sit in the water (have it so they don't float with 3-6 inches of water depending on jar size and water quantity).

those are all great ideaswe're preparing our first spawn in the next few weeks and i was wondering how all the girls were going to have any room in a tank filled with cups for all their brothers.

This is the one I use.

I might actually switch to doing that once everything is set up right.

Similar to what I do.. I have jars and 32oz cups, kritter keepers that I place in tubs of water, etc..

Here are a few of my keepers - can see a couple cups in the back ground (working on barracks right now, both big and "mini" ones for the wall length heavy shelves) as I don't want so much "open" water in the tubs during summer months. I usually have IAL in there, but this was just after some water changes.
